I agree, the extcy is better in a lot more ways, but I am really pressed on a budget right now. By the way, you said the board was cracked out of the box? I think your friend should have just used his warranty, not bought a new board.

I still think you should get an extcy it's only like 75 more dollars and it is a better gun definitely 75 dollars better if you go with an extcy then you will not be disappointed but I have heard that the blitz has problems and that it chops which the extcy doesn't

extcy by far is the better gun. in my eyes azodin is a spyder clone company in a sense because the guy who created azodin left spyder but that point aside you get the most out of your money with the extcy. sure you wait a little longer to scrap up the extra 75 dollars but the reward will be greater with the extcy.

Get the eXTCy no questions.
because it has a much better board and also performs alot better than the blitz
but everything about it is you have pay more attention to your gun .i mean Maintenance and etc...
